The factors that drive the types of loans that we can do are as varied as the structure of the deals themselves. That&#8217;s why, despite the fact that we may have turned something down in the past, it never hurts to ask again.<br \/>\nWe are based in Portland, Oregon, lending in various parts of the country, and adding new capability all the time. Normally, with smaller loans we like to stay close to home. We like lending in areas where we know the location and have a good feel for the properties. However, we recently added additional funding capability. As a result, we&#8217;ve been able to do larger loans and loans in all fifty (50) states of the USA.. This is an example of how changes in our funding capacity expand and enhance our ability to lend geographically over time<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re also starting to become more comfortable with lending on lots. Over the past few years, we&#8217;ve shied away from lot loans. There wasn&#8217;t a great deal of sales activity and accurate valuations were difficult. Lot sales however have picked up as builders are once again building more houses and buying lots, and thus we have a greater comfort factor in this area once again as well.<br \/>\nLoan scenarios themselves can change. Often times when we&#8217;ve turned something down in the past, it has returned to us in a more acceptable state. Perhaps sales comps that are more supportive have become available, or maybe an additional borrower has been added to the scenario with stronger financials. If the picture of a loan has changed for the better, it&#8217;s certainly worth giving us for a second look.<br \/>\nSo, if you have a loan that was declined by us previously, consider submitting it once again.
